The media/data location is no longer configurable — DATA_DIR is a fixed
constant (/var/thoughtsync) and THOUGHTSYNC_MEDIA_ROOT is removed, so a
mutable path can't drift from where the volume is mounted. media_root() =
DATA_DIR/media. Both compose files drop THOUGHTSYNC_DATA_DIR and mount the
data volume at /var/thoughtsync (was the contradictory /data). conftest
drops the stale MEDIA_ROOT monkeypatch (create_app never reads DATA_DIR).

Net env surface: THOUGHTSYNC_DATABASE_URL (required) + THOUGHTSYNC_SECRET_KEY
(optional break-glass).

every other tunable lives in the DB-backed Settings UI (rule 25). The only other

- ``THOUGHTSYNC_SECRET_KEY`` — optional override for the cookie-signing secret.
If unset, a key is generated and persisted in the DB (see
``thoughtsync.settings.load_or_create_secret_key``), so sessions survive
restarts with no volume required.
- ``THOUGHTSYNC_DATA_DIR`` — optional, defaults to ``/var/thoughtsync``. Only
used for uploaded media (M2); irrelevant to a basic text-notes install.
Uploaded media lives under ``DATA_DIR`` — a fixed, authoritative path
(``/var/thoughtsync``), intentionally NOT configurable (a mutable data path only
invites breakage). Mount a volume there if you want uploads to persist across
container recreation; a text-notes-only install never writes to it.
